Loan watch: Mangala's mad 15 minutes!

With 15 of our loan stars in action over the weekend, we begin in Spain where Eliaquim Mangala had an eventful first half away to Barcelona.

He first put Valencia ahead on 29 minutes before being booked and then red carded in the space of five minutes just before the break.

Mangala was harshly adjudged to have pulled back Luis Suarez in the box – Barca took a 2-1 lead from the resulting penalty at the Nou Camp – though the 10-man visitors still had time to level and go in 2-2 at half-time.

Further goals from Messi and Gomes secured a 4-2 win for the Catalans while Valencia remain well clear of the bottom three.

Jason Denayer continued his run in the Sunderland side, playing the full 90 minutes and helping them keep a clean sheet against Burnley. The 21-year-old has now made 22 appearances for Sunderland this season and after initially having to fight his way into David Moyes’ first XI.

The point means Sunderland remain bottom, seven points off safety.

Aaron Mooy was Huddersfield’s best player as they lost 4-0 to Bristol City. It was a disappointing night for the Terriers – but Mooy was the one bright spot.

The result is a dent to Huddersfield’s automatic-promotion chances. They sit third, six points off second-placed Brighton who also lost at the weekend.

Kean Bryan came on after 11 minutes of Bury’s 0-0 draw with Millwall, while Patrick Roberts came on for the final 20 minutes as Celtic beat Dundee to move within one win of their sixth straight Scottish Premiership title.

Moving across the North Sea, FC Twente continued their good form, beating Roda 3-0 away from home. Enes Unal scored their third – his 13th in 26 appearances this season – assisted by Yaw Yeboah, who came off the bench for the final 15 minutes.

Back in La Liga, Samir Nasri completed a miserable week as Sevilla were beaten 3-1 by Atletico Madrid, reducing the gap between the sides to just two points in the inevitable race for third spot.
